Metastatic Acetabular Fracture: A Rare Disease Presentation of Recurrent Head and Neck Paraganglioma

Abstract: We present a case of a rare metastatic bone lesion of the acetabulum, associated with a pathologic fracture, found to be metastasis from a malignant carotid body paraganglioma upon histological analysis. We present a report of the patient's clinical course following the identification of metastatic disease to the right acetabulum, as well as a review of paragangliomas and their propensity for metastasis.

“…Nevertheless, its clinical effect is poor since surgery through this approach may induce large trauma, have complex operation, high technical requirements, postoperative infection, cause inguinal hernia formation and other complications. 5 , 6 The approaches that are widely used clinically for the surgical treatment of acetabular fractures include the improved Stoppa approach, Kocher-Langenbeck approach, as well as the combined anterior posterior approach. At present, the lateral rectus abdominis approach is extensively applied in clinical.…”
